Saris Freedom SuperClamp 2-Bike

The Saris Freedom SuperClamp's innovative front and rear wheel hooks completely eliminate frame contact while providing the most secure hold of any tray-style rack on the market. At only 30 lbs, the SuperClamp 2 is half the weight of similar style racks on the market. And with its integrated lock and arms that ratchet into place to simplify loading and unloading, the Saris Freedom SuperClamp loves to protect your bikes as much as you love to ride them.

This bike excels at accepting all styles of bikes. The old top tube style racks work just fine for large men's bike frames, but are horrible for small frames, women's bikes, and kids bikes. Additionally I didn't like supporting bike on my thin gauge light weight top tube to support my bike. The Saris Super Clamp series solves traditional bike loading woes by making it easy to load.

Saris is a great company and their friendly knowledgable people have gotten me replacement parts quickly and at reasonable prices. In the year we've owned the rack we've gone through four of the tire holders, and one arm (the plastic piece got smashed) primarily due to other cars hitting the rack when we're parallel parked with no bikes on the rack. Because the rack sits low, and does not have a fold up position, when our car is parked and there are no bikes on the rack, it is vulnerable to drivers who do not see it. We would not buy it again.

I've had the rack for about 8 months and overall I'm happy with it. It's well made and holds the bike securely. The hitch mount is very secure, no side to side wobbling. I haven't put two bikes on at the same time yet, and that could lead to a problem given the rack's design. It works better with bikes with larger tires such as mountain bikes, not as well with skinny tire road bikes. Although it doesn't fold it's small and light enough to put in the trunk when you're not using it. This rack would work best on a smaller car and in an application where it won't be left on the car all the time. One of the plastic wheel trays cracked shortly after I got it. Saris replaced it for free with no questions asked.
